Customer Reviews
Loved the shredded pork and stringy cheese Honduran Tamale wrapped in a banana leaf, it stayed moist and the masa flour had a nice flavor. The three pupusas for $15 were filling. Not much flavor to the masa flour, but inside had a mild delicious cheese. The curtido marinated cabbage would have more flavor if shredded thicker in my opinion and the tomato water dipping sauce was very mild; so I added the table provided hot sauce to perk the dish up. On the last visit I tried the fried chicken entrée, smothered in the marinated cabbage mixture. It's too messy to eat by hand, so shredded the meat. Good size portion. A next to me customer had the carna asada, that is what I'll try next time. This is the former location of Pizzalchik and Alpine Pizza so the dining areas are laid out strange. Pe
This place is awesome! Latin food is different than Mexican food. The pupusa‘s are fantastic. The tacos have actual flavor. The tortillas are handmade fresh and the salsa was excellent! Can’t wait to come back.
This was our second time at the Catracha restaurant in Boise, Idaho. We thought the customer service would get better but we soon realized that was erroneous, it got worse. The servers are so RUDE so unattentive, we had to go looking for them SEVERAL times just pay. After waiting for a long time for our dinner and for a take out order as well our food FINALLY made it to our table after an hour plus! it's UNACCEPTABLE! and the woman didn't care she acted more rude (if that was even possible). After that experience I went to their website to read their reviews...this is a trend. How they get five stars is beyond me. I believe those have to be friends and family. Save your money these are not even Salvadorian authentic pupusas or curtido. Go watch the YouTube channels that teach you how to ma
Had the Torta with marinaded pork! Food super good! Well ready there again. The hot sauce they provide was really good! The environment was cozy & friendly. Only complaint i have was the wait time to cash out. Had to find someone to close out
Food was awesome! Important thing to realize about this restaurant, at least when we went there, they don’t bring the check to the table, you have to go and ask for it. (They might even ask you what you ordered like they did for us… It is considered rude in some countries to bring the check to the table without being asked for it. I will definitely be back, the quesadilla also had lettuce in it, which I’m not used to. But it was amazing! The salsa that came with the quesadilla, had really good heat, not just a front of the mouth heat like some salsa. This one really stayed with you. I highly recommend!
